Guesthouse said waitlist at the station and a seat will appear. Sounds like hope. Real desk.

Ask the station. Some counters will tell you if last-minute returns happen. It is not a waitlist like an airline app. Do not sit a day in Kandy on a guesthouse story. Buy unreserved, buy a bus, or check the counter once in the morning and then move.

Counter said no waitlist, buy unreserved or come tomorrow. We bussed.

A return showed at the window. Rare. We were lucky, not clever.

Friends pushed leftover light. They arrived tired. We sat. Same week, ordinary bags.
